Mom and Dad grew up in the same neighborhood, actually rode the same horse to school once in awhile. They go way back in this area. My mom’s dad was a hobo; he rode the rail and died before I was born. So I’ve got a hobo for a grandpa, don’t know where he was from. Mom always preached to us that we’re mutts. Heinz 57 she would say. We’re Scotch, Welsh, Irish, Dutch, and Indian. Our claim to fame is on dad’s side: Samuel Clemens. He had a pen name because he wrote Huckleberry books. Mark Twain? That’s Samuel Clemens. Grandpa always said that he was a cousin. Most popular Clemens. – Ray
